About

Carpathian Escapes was created to allow the world to discover a most beautiful part of Europe, a hidden secret, the Carpathian Mountains in Transylvania. 
Carpathian Escapes is a fully bonded travel agency that was funded with an EU grant obtained by local enthusiasts who have joined together to provide various trips for those seeking an active holiday with breathtaking sights whilst surrounded by the peace and tranquility rarely found today. Guided by the volunteers from the mountain rescue team the Escapes daily programs offer snow mobile trails, hiking routes and ski touring to challenge all levels. These Escapes take you back in time to where the local people still live as they have for the past fifty years. Accommodation has been selected to allow you to experience the life there, in essence an Escape from the modern day world and stresses of the western lifestyle.

Incurajam echitatia responsabila in manej si in natura, cu scopul de a crea o legatura de prietenie intre calaret si cal.  Călăria reprezintă o experienţă unică din multe puncte de vedere: afectiv şi relaţional, psihologic, social şi fizic. Abilitatea de a controla un cal asemenea propriului corp induce încredere în sine, responsabilitate şi spirit de echipă.  Printre beneficiile fizice aduse prin echitatie se enumera: îmbunătăţirea echilibrului, fortificarea musculaturii, îmbunătăţirea coordonării, reflexe mai rapide şi îmbunătăţirea planificării motrice, întinderea muschilor încordaţi sau spastici, îmbunătăţirea respiraţiei şi a circulaţiei, îmbunătăţirea apetitului şi digestiei. In prezent detinem aproximativ 16 cai, toti educati in manej si adaptati plimbarilor calare in natura. Rasele din cadrul centrului de echitatie sunt urmatoarele: pur-sange arab, shagya arab, frizian, lipitan, cal de sport romanesc, semigreu romanesc, cei din urma fiind considerati ideali activitatii cu incepatori. Initierea calaretilor se face in manejul exterior, acesta fiind construit din materiale de inalta calitate pentru ca lectiile sa se desfasoare in conditii de confort si siguranta.

Magenta 7 is a unique tour operator in Romania that brings to your life the uniqueness of rural experiences, blended with balance, nature and authenticity. We are guides with over 10 years of experience in the field. Our paths have met on various occasions so far but this time we decided to start a joint project called Magenta7. Why did we choose this name? Mountain   Active life   Gastronomy   Equilibrium  Nature   Tradition  Adventure Because magenta is invisible on the normal light spectrum and yet the human mind perceives it. Basically, catching the 2 ends of the spectrum, violet and red, we perceive magenta as the color between these two. It is a color of change. And the journey is a change in itself! It is the desire for change, self-discovery and inspiration. These surface when you step beyond the comfort zone of your home. We believe that tourism can be practiced in a truly sustainable way, supporting the local economy, offering experiences beyond the 5 senses already known. Hence the number 7 in the name which comes from the 7 senses, beyond the basic 5. Something to be perceived and felt by the one who becomes part of the Magenta7 experience. We bring you the uniqueness of Transylvania in packages specially designed on your need for knowledge and discovery. You have a choice of 1-day trips or longer, escorted tours where you will take a step back in time. Imagine a day or more adventure through the lesser known Transylvanian countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, in an area of authentic countryside, where you find inspiration guided by the most knowledgeable locals. Discover the REAL side of Transylvania, experience with local guides! • Authentic artisan experience (do it yourself activities) • Time Travel - Corund/Korond • Corund/Korond promenade • Visits spiced with demonstrations of handicrafts • Horse-Drawn Sleigh & Fire-Roasted Picnic in Fantana Brazilor

Are you on a trip in Szeklerland and looking for unforgettable experiences? Discover Corund/Korond and its surroundings with horse-drawn carriage! We are starting our tour at Valea lui Pavel/Pálpataka (7 km from Corund/Korond), which is called Corund/Korond Hill by the locals because it is 1000 metres above sea level. The horse-drawn carriage ride takes you through a fairytale landscape, forests and fields. You will get to know everyday life in the village: cheese making, bread baking, farming, animal keeping. We will taste artisanal cheeses at a cheese-making family and then enjoy a lunch in the pine woods, with a selection of traditional local dishes and drinks. Afterwards, we will head to Fântâna Brazilor/Fenyőkút, the peat bog and visitor trail, where you can find blueberries, thousand-year-old trees and insectivorous plants, among other things. At the end of our journey, there is also the opportunity of homemade jam, syrup and herb demonstrations and tastings. The farm tour lasts 5 to 6 hours. Price:  • 150 RON/person (over 15 years)  • 100 RON/person (4-14 years)  • Free for children under 4 years   We plan our tours according to the needs of our guests. It is possible to organise shorter or longer programmes, explore other routes, visit several attractions and enjoy live music on the horse-drawn carriages.
